I do intend to attach it myself. Though I am still working on getting the jack stands and jack high enough to be able to lift it... I suppose I can roll the old axle to the rear of the trailer so I can just roll the trailer away from it once installed. How heavy are the original axles?

That's actually the pintle I have... Im not certain about switching out the pintle and lunette right now.. It was going to be a later project for sure. I have even chilled out on the axle a little till I can find someone to do the work that's a little less a dick.. One guy is telling me 275 and...

My Tahoe has 5 lug wheels not 6. As for the hitch, I had read somewhere that the coupler was safer for driving... There is another connection I have looked at though. My Tahoe is not a 4X4, so I wont be doing a lot of off road action with the trailer... I did think about the bolt on landing...

I think ill be loosing that ability when I put electric brakes on it...

No, 5 on 5" Wish I had 6 lug

I'll run with that for now... One thing I am thinking about, is the guy I purchased the trailer from was unaware that the levers on the front of the trailer were parking brakes... Makes me wonder how much he used it with them on. Which is where they were when I purchased it.

Adding this for the next new guy. http://miscpartsmanuals2.tpub.com/TM-9-2330-202-14-P/TM-9-2330-202-14-P0179.htm

Wheel Bearings Etc Oh Boy, I am going to attempt tomorrow to open up the hub etc... I am wanting to have an axle swap done by Nov, but just in case I should make sure the current axle is usable in the event I cannot complete the swap... Should I need to replace any Bearings or seals (Not sure...

I keep forgetting to re add this... I guess my initial post was removed because of the links to the pics. Anywho... I purchased this trailer (M101A1) for $450 from a yard sale... Its a but rusty, but intend to blast it and repaint it. Ill keep the color to myself for now. I have never done much...

Hub to Hub measurement and Spring Centers I found measurements for the Hub to Hub and springs... 63" for Hub to Hub 43 1/8" for the springs I was getting what I believed to be 43 1/3" for the springs... Whats the general consensus?

Every fiber of my being told me that you were messing with me. I thought it was some sort of "Private" joke. Like get the brake light fluid before the lights go bad. Luckily for me, I have older friends who have heard of older vehicles having reverse threads. Sure enough, thanks to the two of...

You know, I am almost inclined to believe you... But I know the Government is not that smart...

Well, I still have work to do to it... I am looking at getting a new axle, which I am thinking I have to get from ABC Trailer Parts in Alabama... (Need to call him soon) What I would like to find out is, is there a set measurement on the hub to hub face? and spring centers? Should I push the...

I went from this on the angle: To this on the angle: The only thing/ change I have made to the trailer is flipping the Lunette.. Other than that, I corrected my suspension (rear shocks and leaf springs)

Will do

Errr, about 3-4 months ago. I picked up a M101A1 Trailer from a yard sale for $450... It came with fiberglass racks and all steel bows. Heck of a deal I think... Quite rusty but still fair condition, with civy tires to boot. I also found a guy in Alabama where I purchased the tarp for 150 with...
